CASE STUDY
Nestl Pakistan operates the biggest milk collection operation in Pakistan. Currently, Customer
Nestl milk is collected from an estimated 190,000 farmers spread out over the Nestl
provinces of Punjab and Sindh. It produces a full range of dairy products including
milk, powdered milk, cream, tea whiteners and yoghurt. Industry
Manufacturing
While the demand for its milk products is relatively constant throughout the year,
milk production varies very significantly from season to season. A further complica- Offering
tion is that the content of milk obtained from farmers also varies. Hence Nestl is Application Development
faced with the problem of managing its production capacity in the most efficient
way based on both major supply side constraints and demand side variations.
Despite significant investment in ERP systems, Nestl was unable to automate its
highly complex milk production planning process. There was also a strong realization
of the limitations of the manual planning that was being used. Nestl decided to see
if a customized planning system could be developed. Techlogix was engaged and an
ambitious two year multi-phase project was launched.
Solution Design
To automate the above mentioned process, Techlogix
designed and delivered a web application built on the
Microsoft .Net stack which would invoke a simulation engine
as a separate OS process. Each process took in metadata as
input and ran an iterative algorithm to produce a production
plan along with variety of reports. The reports helped the
planner visualize different aspects of the production plan.
